Config Settings
---------------
-Each service may define a config_settings output variable which returns
-Hiera settings to be configured.
+Each service may define three ways in which to output variables to configure Hiera
+settings on the nodes.
+
+ * config_settings: the hiera keys will be pushed on all roles of which the service
+ is a part of.
+
+ * global_config_settings: the hiera keys will be distributed to all roles
+
+ * service_config_settings: Takes an extra key to wire in values that are
+ defined for a service that need to be consumed by some other service.
+ For example:
+ service_config_settings:
+ haproxy:
+ foo: bar
+ This will set the hiera key 'foo' on all roles where haproxy is included.
